Like Watching the Grass Grow

There’s that thing where I have something vexing me, but can’t say in this public avenue, because that which is vexing me also has access to this very same avenue. Heavy times indeed.

All I can say is that my paper journal would be a far better sphere to contain my thoughts and ideas, truths and personal plans. It really is safer that way.

If only it were possible to publicly state for the record, for commiseration purposes, and yet filter a blog post so no one affected can see it. It’s like I’m looking for the functionality of Facebook or Google+ but without the corporate subterfuge and bolted-on advertising algorithms.

My interaction with all you fine folks really is telemediated. I miss seeing you face-to-face.
